funny thing is dad doesnt care.LOL

my dad always wanted me to get a newer, smaller, slower car, but when i took him in the car for a test drive, i could tell from the smile on his face that things would be ok.

he still gets the shits when i buy things for it. always have to tell him the prices were half of what i actually paid for them.

What car does she drive?

Its a good thing my mum hardly ever watches AU TV (SAT TV FTW :rolleyes: ).

I don't have one yet but my dad doesn't mind and my mum is clueless about cars and hopefully things stay that way.

Having said that I would still get one if my parents were against it. :D:bunny:

hahaha i was trying to wipe that bug of my screen and realised it was fake.hahaha im a dick

i did at first, but it was my first car, after I drove theyre cars for a year that is. But all i had to do to convince them is tell them it was only 162kw which is less than my dads 165kw AWD Magna lol

He still doesnt know how hard I'd chop him :P

Thats exactly the same position I'm in!! First question: Is it turbo??

Thats how I ended up with the GTS, its the perfect first car. You should get something like this, it can get you in trouble, but not as fast as a turbo car. Get the turbo after a year or so of driving.

LOL at fast minitruck. I've driven heaps of Hilux and Rodeo utes, the work ute is an old Rodeo, they are far from fast! Gotta put an SR20 in there for sure!! :(

She's not 'nice'....she's 'sexxx' lol thankies :)

how good does it feel driving a skyline after having to drive a bunky? I felt sooooo good when I got back in the GTR after driving the camry for months.. and yes i did cream my pants.. :(

heres how my first car went-

me: dad i like this car "32 gtst" - its a turbo

dad: hrm.. must be pretty fast, lets look at it

*dealer kept screwing us around, didnt buy it*

*next dealer*

me: dad, look at this, its so cheap! (32 gtr)

dad: what is it?

me: same as the other car, just slightly 'improved' - its only 20k

dad: how many kms has it done?

me: only 40,000!

dad: buy.

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
